That's what I was just told. And
As I begin to type this... I am already predicting your responses. Fact of the matter is, unless you work for Hasbro... you really don't know any better than I do or the individual who passed this information on to me. Just because we saw ONE at toyfare... doesn't mean more were made. I understand how the whole canceled Arctic Duke and Arctic Destro head and postponed hiss drone thing is really confusing and I understand the frustration that has surrounded the Ripcord and SS being in limbo amongst others. SO... I can only tell you what I was told. thus... the thread title. NOW... does that mean we won't see any leaked? I don't know. I was just told that the item is most likely canceled. There was no indication that some where made or a lot were made. I KNOW it was in the GJCC newsletter... trust me... I'm hoping this isn't true... in fact I hope Hasbro is well aware of the support this forum gives Jungle Viper. So that's that.

I think I'm going to need to hear it straight from Hasbro before I assume anything about what is and what is not going to be released 5 months from now.
But, if it is true I can't exactly say I'm disappointed. I don't like my COBRA troops in green, unless it's a Toxo-Viper or Medi-Viper. Plus, the night vision scope on the Jungle Viper's helmet is just too long. |

if this is true, this really sucks! As a HUGE night viper fan I was really looking forward to this one.

hopefully its not the case b/c that is one solid figure.
I can understand canceling Arctic Duke but not the Jungle Viper. Its a modern take on the much anticipated Night Viper so I cant see them scrapping it esp. since its part of the POC line

Well since the figure was shown in the latest issue of the Club magazine (who are mostly likely closer than any of us with Hasbro) I'm going to say it's still coming out, but who knows.

Personally Gyre, I think your source is misinformed, and quite possibly trying to scam you by making whatever leaked prototypes or cast-offs he ends up with suddenly a "super hot" high-demand item. Nice attempt to curtail any disagreement or contradiction by saying "You don't know any better than I do!" That doesn't give your position any more credibility, I'm afraid. |

This is making it a lot easier for me to get out of buying this series...

Seriously?
One person with an unnamed source claims it's cancelled and people automatically believe it? OK, well then. I know this guy who told me that the FLAGG is getting released as a Christmas exclusive at K-Mart. You don't work for Hasbro so you don't know it's not true! Seriously. I'd give more credibility to a rumor that the entire PoC assortment was cancelled than just this one figure. Last edited by Jmacq1; 03-10-2010 at 10:06 AM.. |
